On 1/2/14 I had a corset platysmaplasty. 3 months later, my ps pulled behind my ears in an attempt to tighten residual loose skin as well as address the deeper muscles. Unfortunately, my platysma bands became unattached and reappeared along with loose skin beneath my chin. 3 wks ago, my doctor performed a revision through the incision beneath my chin.
